anhthang / vscode-xml2json Goto Github PK

I found this plugin in vscode store, but I need something to convert json to yaml, will this feature be supported in the future? It should be possible to make... AFAIS

I have only this minimal custom configuration:

 "xml2json.options": {
      "explicitChildren": true,
      "preserveChildrenOrder": true
   },

Yet every time I use it in the current file, I get this error alert:

"Command 'XML to JSON: Convert from selection or document' resulted in an error
"Cannot read properties of null (reading 'indexOf')"

Parsing XML contains > and ' seems to work, but somehow not <

Test string: myKey < myValue >

Versions:

• Visual Studio Code: 1.26.1
• XML to JSON extension: 1.1.1
• OS: Windows 10 64-bit

First off I just want to say thanks for this utility - typically I write a custom node app when i need to do this and its really handy being able to do quick conversions right in the editor.

It would be nice to have some control over the xml2js parsing options though. If this plugin exposed those as settings that the user could add or overwrite that would make it usable in more scenarios.

I'm not sure how difficult plugin settings are in vs code as I haven't created a plugin before. I suppose this might be a good opportunity to learn ;)
